At the bottom of this message is a patch for courier-0.45.4.20040411. I'm sure that it will work in the newer release(s). It took 8 minutes to write, test, and produce the patch, including my learning curve on where to find the 'main' method and the version info for this executable. Now, the following will work:

% ./courier --version 0.45

Might I ask that the patch be expanded to print a more typical response? More like:

courier supervisory daemon 0.45 Copyright (C) ..... Double Precision .....

Or whatever goes there?

Just change "VERSION" to "COURIER_COPYRIGHT" in the patch.

% courier --version Courier 0.45.4.20040411 Copyright 1999-2004 Double Precision, Inc.

THAT is PERFECT. Now that patch needs to be applied to most anything that a user would run. One of these days I'll look into adding a --help/-h/-? option as well.
